Shakedown runs with Grotts and ST3500... Bear in mind that all I ran with was BFG DRs on 16x8 rims, Grott 1 3/4 LTs wide open B4 the cats, a ST3500, shift kit on Level 2, D-Flow lid, and a poly trans mount. Not too much. No weight reduction beyond !spare and ! back seat. No tuning and NO suspension beyond what stock on an SS.
With a 1.79 60ft the car ran a 12.58 @ 107.8 and that's with bouncing off the rev limiter on the 2-3 shift.
I did manage a 1.62 60ft, but on the 2-3 shift I hit the rev limiter for more than a full second and the car only ran a 13.2 @ 102. DAMN!
I will raise the shift points, bump the limiter, have TQ management removed and my ASP UD pulley will go in.
As is, with that 1.62 I should have been 12.30s. With the tiny tuning and pulley and a similar 60 ft to the 1.6, I'm hoping for the 12.10s!!! If not better.
OK. Analyze my run and tell me if my predictions are correct.
Thanks!
